All animals are`magnificent intelligent beings` so stop keeping them as pets and then i`ll listen to your argument on wildlife parks.

Are you REALLY comparing keeping pets to dolphins in captivity? Get a grip!

Tattooed_Princess

Yeah because domesticated animals are doing so well in the wild, feral cats and dogs are just wonderful 🙂 …….. You should be against puppy farms and should be supporting neutering of house cats to keep the ‘wild pets’ out of the gutters and disease free or is that how you like them?

Love Ricky. Great human!!! He’s been fighting for all animals and I admire him for sharing with all his fans.

Not the cows, pigs, chickens, lambs, fish, goats. He loves one and eats others

I am passionate about animal protection.

Ricky, what about the other non humans who are enslaved, tortured and have their throats slot, hung upside down, bleed out, get chopped up all to feed your face. Stop being a Speciesist

Sea world animals are born in captivity and don’t know they are wild animals or they are rescue animals which can no longer live in the wild. They are taught to perfom tricks to help with their mental stimulation or they would become depressed and die. Also people coming to see them perform are helping to fund the animals food and maintain their enclosures and health. They are also used in breeding program’s to help repopulate the species. So maybe mr Gervais should do a little more research before opening his celebrity mouth and spouting crap! I also hate cruelty to animals and love seeing animals in their natural environment but sometimes it is more beneficial to the animal to be in captivity.

Hello Sue. It sounds to me like you have done an even smaller amount of research than you claim Ricky Gervais has done. Have you ever watched the documentary ‘Blackfish’? Nevermind, I know you haven’t. Tilikum (the orca) wasn’t born in captivity, he was stolen from the ocean/his family when he was 2 years old in 1983. He now lives out his miserable existence in a small pool (for his size) at Sea World Orlando. I’ll leave it at that even though there is much more I could say. Please do some research, what you have said is unfortunately ignorant.

And you quoting a single case is not being ignorant? There are planty of places that DO indeed have animals born and bred in captivity and would not survive in the wild….More research needed on your part i think!
